Customer Ratings & Reviews

I have now had THREE of these machines through this past year. Let me start by saying I LOVE it for so many reasons and have had NO regrets in buying it (and also glad I got the extended/replacement warranty, which I have used!!). This machine has saved me through the pandemic and because of it, I never buy coffeehouse espressos anymore. This deLonghi was not difficult to learn to use and makes exceptional coffee, especially when accompanied by a good grinder. It is simple, basic, and works very well, both for the pulling of a shot with gorgeous crema and for steaming my milk. HOWEVER, all three of the machines I have gotten have the same annoying defect - which shows up after a couple of months of daily use. After a couple of months of stellar performance, invariably, it starts LEAKING from where the water is pressurized into the filter. It starts leaking once the water begins to warm up and continues until you turn the machine off. Drip drip drip... This would not be a horrible defect, BUT it means that if you pull a shot to the height you prefer, and then turn on the steamer to heat your milk (I use almond milk with a dash of whipping cream, my fave combo) the water is still dripping into your coffee all the while. So you ultimately get a much "longer" shot than you wanted. I have tried making a shorter shot and such, but each time the shot ends up being about double what I wanted. As I said, this has happened THREE times and I am getting ready to return this one too, for the dripping. I do not know what to do or what other choice I should make. I am not sure if this is only true with this specific model or with other deLonghis, but it is enough that it ruins the cup and a reason I will also return this one. To others maybe this will not matter. I am not all that fussy (although I confess, I AM a pro chef), but it is a defect in all three of the same model machines I have purchased. Seems the machine works great for a couple of months and then this starts to happen. I think that deLonghi needs to address this issue. Otherwise, as I said, the quality and function of the machine is great. Sad though..

very good and easy to use, really one of the best purchases I could have ever made

Love this!!! Excellent value for money. Can’t beat the quality. It’s not sophisticated excellent ease of use. Love using the frother, where you can whip up an excellent oat milk lattes and espressos. 15 bars of pressure for under $100 is quality!!!!

This item Did not disappoint. I read some reviews and I was a little skeptical, but after trying it, it was easy to use efficient effective and very fun.

Excelent espresso machine, very good quality. Great deal for the price

The coffee tastes Great ! Really a well made product. Wont be going back to my other coffee maker. If you like great coffee buy this machine. Thanks

Makes great shots and great foam. Outperformed our Delonghi that cost more than twice as much in the foam department. The Delonghi died a sudden death and we needed a replacement and decided to try this machine and we're glad we did. Minor complaint is that it's difficult to see the remaining water level. Maybe back lighting would help.

I love this espresso machine! It has saved me so much money, I make coffee at home now instead of going to Starbucks or Dutch bros. To be honest the coffee taste much better than those places. 10/10 recommend!

Absolutely love this espresso maker, it’s easy to use and clean up is a breeze.

Wonderful product must have, I've and my friends love it

Not bad for the price, heat up water kind of slow, wish coffee tray can get bigger

Love it, easy to use. Great Cupper!!!!! I am now a hit at home, king of the hill, A No 1, each an every Morning; and she'll Like it too.

Love it. Best bang for your buck once you know how to use it. If I understood the “manual” vs “automatic” aspect before buying, I might have spent the extra money on an automatic but you can beat the price in this one.

My old espresso machine was turning into a pressure bomb so I finally broke down and bought a new one. I was interested in an all-in-one press, drip, and grinder, but that was out of stock in-store and I bought this instead to get by. Honestly, it does everything I need and I'm super happy. I especially like the removable mesh in the bottom of the cups. It's also $800-900 cheaper than the all-in-one.

LOVE LOVE LOVE! This was the best purchase I made in 2023 I now can make my fav iced coffees at home it’s definitely an investment that was needed!

Purchased this as a Christmas gift. Works as expected. Simple & straight forward to use, It's a manual espresso maker so you'll have to shut it off by hand when the desired amount of coffee has been poured into your cup.

Love love love espresso’s/coffee. My husband makes my morning coffee and it’s so good. This machine is fun and easy to use.

Really great machine. Easy to set up and easy to use. I used coffee pods before and this is so much nicer. The extra cleaning is worth it and only takes a few minutes. I love it

I've had this espresso machine for about a year and I have liked it so far. It's a great starter machine. However, I am wanting to upgrade because I think it could do better. It takes quite a while to froth milk as you have to wait for the wand to heat up a few times. When I originally purchased this machine, it was missing the scoop/stamp, but after emailing deLonghi, they sent me one. Additionally, my machine will leak from time to time.

Prob my best investment into being upright and human as an older adult. Easy to clean, simple, and gives my coffee the boost that it needs. So glad I purchased this little machine!
